Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan compared white people to Satan in his June 26 sermon that was printed this week. Farrakhan added that the purpose of the white man is the same as Satan’s with God.

Just as God has a natural enemy in Satan, so the “original man” – black men and women – have an enemy in the white man, Louis Farrakhan, leader of the Nation of Islam (NOI), told an audience at a Boston mosque recently.

Unlike many of Farrakhan’s sermons which are posted almost immediately to social media and the NOI website, the June 26 address, “Who is the natural enemy of the original man?” was not made public, although it was available for purchase.

Portions of Farrakhan’s address were finally published at The Final Call, the daily online newspaper for the group, Aug. 9…

…Regarded by the Southern Poverty Law Center as an anti-Semite and hate preacher, Farrakhan said during the address that when God creates a creature, he gives it a natural enemy to “justify its existence when it behaves as the Creator created it to be.”

“Whether you want to believe it or not, there would be no mankind if there were no original man—and ‘original man’ is you, black man and woman,” Farrakhan said. “White people are Johnny-come-latelys on our planet. I’m not making mockery. They were given a purpose, and they have fulfilled it.”

The purpose for the white man, he said, is the same as Satan’s with God.

“Everything in nature has an opposite side, so the black man being the original man, you have a natural enemy just like God has a natural enemy in Satan, who is always working against God’s purpose for man.”
